Adirondack Water Week to focus on protecting water resources

(Aug 24, 2020) Climate change, invasive species and road salt are all topics up for discussion this week during the inaugural Water Week event, sponsored by the Adirondack Watershed Institute at Paul Smith's College and Northwood School.

Dan Kelting, executive director of the Adirondack Watershed Institute says this year's virtual event will focus on the Legacy of Adirondack Waters, and will feature a weeklong speaker series geared toward the general public. The programs will be conducted online using Zoom and will include a live Q and A session. Registration is required.

Kelting says the virtual week-long event will allow the Institute to update the public on the status of water resources in the park and how residents and visitors can help protect lakes and streams.
